Private Penile Implant Surgery

Penile implant surgery can be used to treat erectile dysfunction. It involves placing a prosthetic device inside the penis and scrotum. Such a device helps achieve an erection and regain sexual function. The surgery is usually recommended for those who tried other treatments such as medication or a penis pump, but they didn’t work.

In Canada, different provinces have different coverage for penile implants. Check with your urologist or family doctor what is covered and if you qualify. Because implants permanently change the tissue in the penis, they are not used for men whose erection problems are psychological. When considering private surgery for erection problems, it is important to include your partner in your decision.

If you were put on a lengthy provincial waitlist and are unwilling to wait, we can help. We have established relationships with accredited outpatient surgical facilities in the US that can do the surgery without the wait. Contact us toll-free 877 344 3544 to find out more information.

Private Cystoscopy

Cystoscopy is a urologic test that checks the health of your bladder and urethra. It is done by examining the lining of the bladder and urethra with a cystoscope, a thin tube with a camera, and light on the end. The cystoscope is inserted through the urethra.

This diagnostic procedure is a short one – in most cases, it lasts less than 5 minutes and is usually done under local anesthesia (gel or liquid) and you will be awake and able to see the procedure on the screen. In most cases, the results can be discussed right after the procedure.

Cystoscopy is recommended when blood is detected in your urine, you experience frequent or/and painful urinary tract infections, or use the bathroom very often. It can detect bladder or urethra tumors or cancer, bladder stones, enlarged prostate, and scarring or damage caused by UTIs.

The waitlists in the public system can differ depending on the province you are in and the priority of your indicated condition. If you are unwilling to wait and would like to arrange a private cystoscopy, we can assist. Please note that there are no private cystoscopies in the Maritime provinces and you will have to travel outside your local area.
